Question
In one poem, this author included equations stating that [read slowly] the title place plus the title place equals “a hole in the earth’s aura leaking rivers of madness,” and the title place minus the title place equals “the sun.” This author ended a collection with an elegy that concludes, “Dust, gathering on the seasons’ windowpanes, / covers the mirrors / and collects on your hands.” That collection by this author has sections titled “The Sorcerer of Dust” and “The Knight of Strange Words.” The lines (*) “Up to now, Earth has been drawn as a pear / I mean breast” open a poem by this author whose section addressing Walt Whitman repeatedly declares, “the hour announces the time.” This author made the first complete translation of The Metamorphoses into Arabic. For 10 points, “A Grave for New York” and Songs of Mihyar are by what Syrian poet with a mythological pen name? ■END■
